How do I scrap my car legally in the UK?

Is car collection really free?
Yes! We offer free collection for all scrap and salvage vehicles, provided the car is accessible and has all four wheels with tyres.
What documents do I need to scrap my car?
You’ll need your V5C logbook (vehicle registration certificate). If you don’t have it, let us know we can still help process your vehicle legally.

Ideally, yes. If you can’t be there, you can nominate someone else in advance just let us know when you book the collection.
What if my car is damaged or not running?
No problem! We accept cars that are damaged, faulty, non runners, or have failed their MOT.
Can I scrap a car on someone else’s behalf?
Yes, but you’ll need proof of ownership and written permission from the registered keeper.

We do! If your car is too valuable to scrap but too costly to repair, we can offer a salvage price through our specialist buyers.

Absolutely. We are committed to eco-friendly vehicle disposal, recycling as much material as possible and disposing of hazardous parts safely.
